Comments:

This is one of my usual hikes.  I get out here at least once a month.  I find it's best to go on a weekday to avoid the crowds.  A couple of years back when the creek was especially high.  My husband and I toobed the creek from the Spicewood springs parking area all the way to the Lakewood parking.  It was a great one and we were the only ones on the creek.
